(MENAFN) The ride-hailing app, Careem, announced on Sunday that it had developed RoundMenu and would begin trialing food delivery services through the restaurant listing and reservation online platform this month.
The Dubai-based ride hailing firm acquired the website and app for an undisclosed sum.
"Careem will begin testing a delivery capability for RoundMenu customers on a small scale later this month," it said in a statement.
RoundMenu has a presence in 18 cities across nine Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Egypt, according to its website.
Several food delivery companies, including Talabat, Zomato, UberEats, and Deliveroo, are active in the region but RoundMenu has raised USD3.1 million in funding since it launched in 2012, the Careem statement said.
